It was discovered in 1982 by Peter Armbruster, Gottfried Münzenber and their co-workers at Gesellschaft für Schwerionenforschung (GSI — Institute for Heavy Ion Research) in Darmstadt, Germany. Its name originates with Lise Meitner, the Austrian physicist. Meitnerium is the seventh member of the 6d series of transition metals. Since element 112 (copernicium) has been shown to be a transition metal, it is expected that all the elements from 104 to 112 would form a fourth transition metal series, with meitnerium as part of the platinum group metals. Calculations on its ionization potentials and atomic and ionic radii are similar to those of its lighter homologue iridium, thus implying that meitnerium's basic properties will resemble those of the other group 9 elements: cobalt, rhodium and iridium. Meitnerium is expected to be a solid under normal conditions and assume a face-centered cubic crystal structure, similarly to its lighter congener, iridium. It should be a very heavy metal with a density of around 37.4 g/cm3, which would be the second-highest of any of the 118 known elements, second only to that predicted for its neighbor hassium (41 g/cm3).

This can be viewed empirically as due to differing penetration effects. Radial Wavefunctions Pn,l2 for 4f, 5d, 6s in Ce 4f orbitals (and the atoms in general) steadily contract across the lanthanide series. Effective electron potential for the excited states of Ba {[Xe] 6s 4f} & La {[Xe] 6s 5d 4f} show a sudden change in the broadness & depth of the 4f "inner well".

ILANGKUMARANb, aDepartment of Electronics and Communication Engineering, Bannari Amman Institute of Technology, Sathyamangalam, Erode, Tamilnadu, India bDepartment of Mechatronics Engineering, K S Rangasamy College of Technology, Tiruchengode, Tamilnadu, India The ever-increasing energy demand and the shortage of fossil fuels force the researchers to do research on utilization and conversion of renewable energy sources. In Recent years, the graphene and Transition Metal Chalcogenide (TMC) based Phase Change material (PCM) have been reviewed towards the future energy storage and energy conversion. This PCM is considered as a promising pathway to alleviate the energy crisis. The TMC material is considered as an emerging material due to their optoelectronic behavior and stability of the material. Moreover, the integration of TMC with graphene, significantly improve the performance of the system. The storage of solar energy in the form of sensible and latent heat has become an important aspect of energy management. To improve the performance of domestic solar water heater system, the vertical spiral and cylindrical heat exchanger is designed. The spiral module and cylindrical modules filled with and without PCM are analyzed and the obtained results are compared with each other. The results show that the spiral and cylindrical heat exchanger filled with PCM store and release the thermal energy efficiently and it performs the desired functions than the without PCM module. (Received April 28, 2020; Accepted July 14, 2020) Keywords: Graphene/transition metal chalcogenide, Phase change material, Thermal management, Heat exchanger, Spiral and cylindrical module 1.

  • Periodic Table 1 Periodic Table
    Periodic table 1 Periodic table This article is about the table used in chemistry. For other uses, see Periodic table (disambiguation). The periodic table is a tabular arrangement of the chemical elements, organized on the basis of their atomic numbers (numbers of protons in the nucleus), electron configurations , and recurring chemical properties. Elements are presented in order of increasing atomic number, which is typically listed with the chemical symbol in each box. The standard form of the table consists of a grid of elements laid out in 18 columns and 7 Standard 18-column form of the periodic table. For the color legend, see section Layout, rows, with a double row of elements under the larger table. below that. The table can also be deconstructed into four rectangular blocks: the s-block to the left, the p-block to the right, the d-block in the middle, and the f-block below that. The rows of the table are called periods; the columns are called groups, with some of these having names such as halogens or noble gases. Since, by definition, a periodic table incorporates recurring trends, any such table can be used to derive relationships between the properties of the elements and predict the properties of new, yet to be discovered or synthesized, elements. As a result, a periodic table—whether in the standard form or some other variant—provides a useful framework for analyzing chemical behavior, and such tables are widely used in chemistry and other sciences. Although precursors exist, Dmitri Mendeleev is generally credited with the publication, in 1869, of the first widely recognized periodic table.

  • Recent Advances in Transition Metal Sensitizers for Lanthanide NIR Emission
    Recent Advances in Transition Metal Sensitizers for Lanthanide NIR Emission Brian Bellott Literature Seminar October 11, 2005 Materials that emit in the near infrared (NIR) are useful in biological applications because tissue is relatively transparent to NIR radiation but relatively opaque in the ultraviolet or visible range. NIR devices could be used to perform deep tissue studies in real time, thus avoiding the delays associated with ex situ analyses.1 Lanthanides have unusually sharp NIR absorption and emission spectra due to the small radial extension of the f-orbitals relative to the filled 5s and 5p orbitals.2 The narrow spectroscopic features enable lanthanides to be used in a variety of applications, such as lasers, flat panel displays, contrast agents, and numerous biological applications.3-11 Due to the Laporte forbidden nature of the f-f transitions, the lanthanides have very small molar absorptivities. As a result, direct photogeneration of the lanthanide emissive states is very inefficient. The use of sensitizers can compensate for the symmetry-forbidden nature of the f-f transitions. Sensitizers act by absorbing light energy to generate a sensitizer-localized excited state; subsequent energy transfer from the sensitizer to the lanthanide generates the emissive lanthanide excited state. The use of sensitizers results in higher quantum yields for the lanthanide emission: effective sensitizers have larger molar absorptivities than the lanthanide elements and serve as antenna chromophores. The antenna effect is demonstrated in Figure 1.11 Ligand Energy Transfer (Ln3+)* hn Emission Antenna (Ln3+) Lanthanide Figure 1: The antenna effect (Adapted from ref 11). Organic based sensitizers have been studied since the early 1990s.12 Recently, researchers have been interested in synthesizing lanthanide compounds connected to transition metal sensitizers.13 Transition metals have many properties that make them good sensitizers.

These materials may NOT be copied or redistributed in any way, except for individual class instruction. Revised August 2011 AP TOPIC 10: Transition Metal Basics • Introduction TOPIC 10 of the AP course is really what I like to describe as a “bonus topic”. Many AP courses will not touch upon transition metal chemistry at all, and it is certainly possible to do extremely well on the AP exam without devoting any time to it. So why bother? Well, there are two reasons. 1. Some information on this topic may well help in the other, more important areas (for example, TOPIC 10 is related to REDOX chemistry). A little extra knowledge cannot hurt, and this constitutes some solid chemistry that can be viewed as reading around the subject, increasing chemical general knowledge and broadening chemical horizons. 2. Study of this topic may help in the equation writing section of the exam. Several equations involving this topic have been examined in the past and students often ignored them (before 2007 you could choose to ignore them since you only had to choose five equations from a total of eight but since 2007 there is no longer any choice in which equations to write). Below is a survey of the appearance of transition metal chemistry in the equation writing section of the exam since 1981. 2+ 2010B b (XS conc. NH3 + Ni ) 2008 a (XS conc. OH- + Al3+) 2006B d (conc.
